Thanks for visiting our team fundraising page.
We've joined together to raise money for Percy's Pals. You'll see our team fundraising target on the right. Your donation can really help us smash this goal.
Who was Richard Percival?
'Percy' was a GP from Hedge End, Southampton who died aged 47 from stroke. He cared deeply about the welfare of others and dedicated his professional life to helping the sick. He lived in Twyford, Hampshire with his wife and two daughters, and was a significant influence on his friends and the village community.
He would have wanted his name and death to be a catalyst for good in the community.
Who are Percy's Pals?
Percy's Pals is a fundraising group formed by Percy's friends to do important charity work and raise money in his name. The fund operates under the umbrella of the Southampton Hospital Charity.
What is the Wessex Neurological ITU?
The Wessex Neuro ITU is a wing of Southampton General Hospital, specialising in treating victims of stroke and brain injury from all over the south of England.
What is the Dr Richard Percival Scanner Appeal?
The appeal aims to raise £250,000 to purchase a specialist portable CT brain scanner for the Wessex Neuro ITU. Without this scanner the treatment of patients admitted to the ITU could be delayed vital minutes, where the speed of treatment can be crucial to their survival and a successful recovery.
